Thoughts: Mr. Pike has already had quite the college career, and he has yet to even step on the field. As some may remember, Pike was a highly sought after QB coming out of high school, even attending the Elite 11 QB camp. Pike ultimately chose Auburn over other various universities and then got into a little trouble. Auburn decided he was longer a great fit and his services became available. (This isn't the place to bash a 18 year old kid and I'll never agree with anyone who does. We've all made stupid decisions, and ultimately it's how you learn from those that dictates what type of person you are) Louisville landed this talented young man but due to the fact that our QB position is pretty solid for the next few years, he was moved to tight end. While Christian (the Florida transfer) looks to be the starting TE, Pike could get some reps as the season progresses. We've been a little thin at TE the past few years, so the addition of Pike will hopefully give the position some depth and provide a few more targets for Teddy B.

Sweet Tweet:

Rumor on the street is that Motown Philly is back...again. I haven't confirmed this but all reports show that it is indeed an east coast joint that is not to hard or to soft.
